Week beginning 18th October

Welcome to our final week of the Autumn 1st Half term...it has gone so quickly and has been wonderful as we have got to know our pupils and settle in for the year ahead.

The children all looked fantastic at the disco and partied hard!

They have worked extremely hard this week...

English:

This week the children's creativity really stepped up a level.  We looked closely at descriptions of characters and the children developed their own dragon that can be used in the myth they will write this week.  The ideas they had were very impressive.  This week we will model together each stage of a myth from the introduction to the climax, then the children will produce some independent writing and complete the resolution to their myths.  These will be displayed in our English wall.  This week's spelling will be Summer 1st half.

Maths:

The children have been working very hard on their x table knowledge and this is really paying of in tests and lessons.  They need to continue to learn them and practice the associated division facts.  My Maths has been set up and all the children have a password.  Could you ensure they keep it safe and complete any set tasks?

Topic:

The children have produced beautiful Viking brooches.  This week they will paint and decorate them. They will also make shields for our displays,  They have Viking Runes to paint and a carousel of art and DT tasks to transform our classrooms into a piece of history.

Science:

The children will be learning more about sound this week through our music sessions on Friday.  They music experts that come have agreed to teach the children more about vibration and pitch through a practical approach using instruments.

Parent's Night:

Please make sure you have received your forms back with the appointment times on.  The meetings are 10 minutes each.  You will receive key assessment objectives as mentioned in the assessment meetings last week and non negotiables targets highlighted for your child.


We are looking forward to meeting with you all this week.  Thank you again for all your continued support.
